Throws of Agony

I am in the depths of despair!
I just got rejected from the university of my choice. Now I am a complete and utter failure. I was only a partial failure before, when I wasn't going to a university at all, but now that I'm trying to go back to school, they don't want me. *sob*. I think I'll go drown myself in three tubs of Ben and Jerrys and then walk the streets like a homeless person and finally fall asleep on a park bench. It's all I'm good for. Woe is me. Pity me, cear reader. I am counting on you all to tell me how unworthless I am and bolster my ego.
Life sucks.

  1. Don't despair! One door closes and another opens.
    What school rejected you? I can scorn their mascott and make cruel limericks of their school song!

  2. No fear, perkyhandmaiden! You are not worthless in the least. In fact, I would say you are very worthwhile. I love to read your blog, do you know that? And I love to read your writing--it cracks me up. It'll be ok. I wouldn't disagree with the Ben and Jerry's though--sometimes that's what ice cream is for. :o)

  3. Aw, Sar! You're the best! It's okay -- there's something better for you out there. Oh, and if you're going to sleep on a park bench, do it here in Brigham. Salt Lake is far too dangerous :)

  4. I'm sorry to hear that! You are truly unworthless and deserve much better than any ol' stinkin' university. What school and program were you trying to get into?

  5. You are worth a great deal! Sometimes what we think is a problem ends up being a blessing. I think you are amazing. Like Maria says in SOUND OF MUSIC, 'If God closes a door, he opens a window'. So start looking up towards the windows! Something better is going to come along.

  6. Don't despair! I will save thee! You don't have to despair just because stupid BYU doesn't want you. They're mean and silly people. Come join me at UVU this next semester! They accept you the moment you apply and their happy people! Whatever you do DO NOT go to Snow or Weber! Evil places they be indeed! Why I remember the days I so delighted in the thought that I too could attend U of U, but wo is me for I was rejected TWICE not once but TWICE. I appealed to the universe and they spoke to me and said "Though shalt..." and I cried in agony "Though shalt WHAT?" alas, the universe was out of fluffy frosting and could no longer appeal to my heartfelt desires. I cried. I saw life as a 2 dimension black and white piece of paper before me. Flimsy like paper they were as my silly new people past me by. The wind would fly them away much like my dreams were taken from me. Indeed the saying is true "when a door closes a window opens." That window may be high and you may have to pay $39.59 for a latter that would reach high enough and then you may have to use a can of WD40 that cost you $7.69 because you found that the window would only open so wide and then you might find that as your going through that window that it tries to shut closed on you almost cutting you in half, but do not despair! glass breaks =) making it very simple to go through and even though you realize that you should have done that first, you are now wise indeed that you know that in the future you should simply break the glass instead of trying to open it. That Sara darling is what we are here to do, to pay an extra $47.28 to become wiser, except we won't know that until after collage because someone decided that Universities should charge for all of your precious organs just to scam you out of learning that only $47.28 was needed.

  7. Hey, I'm sorry sis. That is awful. Let me know what I can do for you. I'd be happy to take you for that ben and jerry's outing.

  10. Sarah,
    As a Y graduate, I'm denouncing my diploma and education for rejecting my little sis! They're totally stuck up over there. Just remember perkyhandmaiden, you have fabulous talents and you'll find your way out there in the unexpected and unknown because...you are ASTONISHING!!!
